Хөвсгөл далай (ᠬᠥᠪᠰᠦᠭᠦᠯ ᠳᠠᠯᠠᠢ)

 

Khuvsgul Dalai. 

Khuvsgul Lake, located in the northern part of our country, is the deepest lake in Central Asia.  Almost half of the area is more than 100 meters deep because this lake was formed by a deep depression formed by the rise of mountains.  The water of Khuvsgul Lake is clean, low in mineral salts and organic matter, and rich in oxygen even though it is deep.  The water is as clear as a mountain stream, so fish can be seen many meters deep.  A hundred streams originating from the permanently snow-capped mountains flow into Khuvsgul Lake.  Khuvsgul lake has four islands: Khatan navel, Ocean navel, Modon navel and Baga navel.  Khuvsgul Lake has been a waterway for communication with neighboring countries since ancient times, so it has an advantage over other lakes.  Mongolians affectionately call this lake "Khuvsgul Dalai (sea)”.
